#118 – Finding Fitness At 80 Years Old with Jim Owen

What if we told you aging like fine wine and fitness go hand in hand? While some seek to kickstart their fitness journey when faced with health issues in their later years, they soon find that their newly discovered lifestyle, combined with a little discipline, can go a long way. James “Jim” Owen, a forty-year veteran of Wall Street, speaker, and author joins this episode to talk through his journey of finding fitness later in life and how it turned things around.

Jim shares what started his fitness journey along with when health became a priority. Furthermore, he reveals details from the books he’s written, defines a super ager and what it entails, and lays out why it’s important to start slow and make a commitment to yourself. He later uncovers his own fitness struggles, tips for increasing your health, and explains his 2-day rule accompanied by a secret to motivating yourself to workout.
